Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Initiation of a 5-Year Review of Greenback Cutthroat Trout (Oncorhynchus clarki stomias)

Zusammenfassung

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) announces a 5- year review of greenback cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki stomias) under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA). A 5-year review is a periodic process conducted to ensure that the listing classification of a species is accurate. A 5-year review is based on the best scientific and commercial data available at the time of the review; therefore, we are requesting submission of any such information on greenback cutthroat trout that has become available since its reclassification as a threatened species in 1978. Based on the results of this 5-year review, we will make the requisite finding under the ESA.
